Women are a critical part of any organization, but in the tech industry in particular they are under-represented. Women in Security is an attempt to create a security-focused professional meetup for networking, education, and to encourage better community participation.

This is an important piece of continuing to grow the technical community, and despite being an event focused on networking opportunities, it is open to both men and women.
